Our goal every day at the office of Dr. Clayhold has always been to provide absolute safety, comfort and care to our patients. We are committed to both patient and employee health and wellbeing by providing the highest level of clean, sterile and virus free environment possible. For 16 years we have been here taking care of your mouth and dental emergencies and during this crucial time of pandemic we are here to help you.
As the COVID-19, (commonly known as coronavirus virus) pandemic crisis continues to escalate, many changes and alterations to our normal and daily routines are being put into effect, so as to restrict the rapid proliferation and communal spread of the COVID-19/ Coronavirus. The American Dental Association, Centers for Disease Control, Washington State Dental Association, and the Department of Health has issued guidelines to postpone all elective, non-essential dental procedures. Many dental offices have made the very difficult decision to temporarily close their offices in accordance to these guidelines and recommendations. We want to protect that continuity of care during these unique times while helping prevent the spread of COVID-19 coronavirus. We will be restricting patient care and procedures to those in need of emergency and non-elective or extremely urgent care.
We are deferring and rescheduling elective care appointments until at least April 15th. Please contact us at 425 369-1533 to find a time that is convenient for you.
